Long time, no see

Yikes, have been away from work for 10 days and I hardly ever blog at home.. Usually on lunch hour.

So, I am gonna forget half of what I have done.. But heres a quick rundown so I can try to remember.

Did "Larry Bird" in about 13 minutes and change, KB swings were horrible at the end. The rest I could handle somewhat.

Did Flight simulator in about 11 minutes and change, in sweatpants, horrible decision. I was pouring buckets. But my double unders were pretty money. I only tripped on 40 on the up ladder twice and went the rest of the way with no mess ups. I rule.

10,000 lbs WOD with Jake was a nice little strategy workout.
Did 115 lb power snatches for reps and killed the tire flips. We finished in just over 10 minutes, perfect weight, perfect partner trade-off timing, don't think we could have done much better.

Sunday rest

Monday
I did this little descending workout
Row 500
5 Power Cleans @205
20 Box Jumps 24"
Row 400
4 PCs
20 Box Jumps
Row 300
3 PCs
20 BJs

...etc down to 100m, 1,20..

This took about 11 or 12 minutes. The cleans got heavy but I had no misses, and I paced the row right at about 1:47 the whole way, pretty steady.
My wind felt pretty good the whole way.

That night I did one of the Rx workouts we have planned for the Throwdown in August, can't share it here.
It was pretty good, but we are going to change the timestamp on it because it may have been a little too short. We discussed for a while afterward.

Tuesday
Snatch 1RM
Ugliest 160 lb power snatch PR you have ever seen. I have half a mind to not even count it it was so hideous, wide foot landing, almost stumbled, ran forward to grasp it.. awful..

Randy - 4: 27 Rx'd

Mostly a mental workout, could have done better. I got tired after about rep 45 and sort of pussied out at the end. Should have done it in under 4 minutes.



Wednesday the 4th
"Barbara"
Disgusting, one of the worst things ever. Those sit ups can suck me sidewise.

Pull ups felt quite good, and the push ups were not as bad as they could have been. But the sit ups.. good god.. Horrible..
Took like 36 minutes I think? I didn't write down the seconds. Just wanted to go home and die afterward.


Thursday - BIG REST day.. slept 16 hours  including nap and beach time.. AWESOME.

Friday - Weighted Pull Ups and Building Blocks
Pull Ups -worked up to 40 lbs, haven't done these in way too long.. Felt ok, not great.
BB - 7 + 6 reps.. Thrusters were terrible, as were clapping push ups after about round 4.. so hard.


Saturday - Partner WOD Summerslam

Eddie and I got after this one and really pushed each other to the brink. We got 31 rounds, and I don't think we left much out there. We pushed the pace pretty much from beginning to end.

Had it gone on 5 minutes more I may have lost my breakfast. I went really hard for all 15 of my rounds. Jerks may have been a little too light for only 3 reps upon reflection. Still fun though.

Sunday - rest again.. wooooooooooooo
